The Cincinnati Reds placed rookie right-hander Chase Burns on the 15-day injured list Friday with an elbow issue.
The move is retroactive to Tuesday for Burns, who was diagnosed with a Grade 1 right flexor strain.
Burns, 22, is 0-3 with a 5.24 ERA in eight starts since making his major league debut on June 24.
He struck out exactly 10 batters in four of his last five starts, pushing his season total to 57 in 34 1/3 innings.
Cincinnati selected Burns with the No. 2 overall pick in the 2024 MLB Draft out of Wake Forest.
The Reds recalled left-handed reliever Joe La Sorsa, 27, from Triple-A Louisville in a corresponding transaction.
